DEFECTIVE SPEECH.

Clinical Lecture.

Leading Points Of Recently Delivered
Clinical Lecture.
A child with cleft palate uses his
tongue and the muscles Of the palate
in an unnatural way. Hence, after
the closure of the cleft by an opera
ton, an impediment remains, because
the patient is still controlled by his
previous habits. He will need, there.
fore, systematic training for months or
years. to acquire right habits in the
case. One prime requisite Is that he
fix his entire attention on his teacher,
and slowly initiate him, as the latter
strongly pronounces the difficult words,
making every movement Of his lips and
tongue as plain as possible. The pal
ate may be SO highly arched that the
child's speech is not much better than
chat q the former case. But the sofl
part of the palate can be lowered by
an operation, and the speech greatly
improved by training. There may be
extreme backwardness in speaking,
though there is no organic defect.
Here a practiced eye will see that there
Is mental feebleness. Speech training
will be part Of tia necessary training
of the intellectual powers.
In other cases, the mental powers
generally may be good, and the child
be indeed specially bright, but for
some cerebral reason, he lisps badly,
or finds it difficult to pronounce the
letters or !, or he speaks in a babyish
way. Such patients will generally
overcome the difficulty in time. Some.
times the voice is ''stuffy," especially
in endeavoring to utter m, n, or ng.
The word morning sounds like bordtq.
This is due to growths in the nose, or
back mouth. On the removal Of these.
by surgical operation, the voice re.
covers its normal character. Enlarged
tonsils sometimes cause somewhat
similar difficulty.
Another defect Is stammering.
Usually the person has a nervous con-
stitution. and has been subjected to
some nervous strain, generally at
school. In such cases, all disturbing
causes should be removed, and the
nervous system be invigorated as far
as possible. But the stammercr must
be taught 70 speak with deliberate
enunciation, initiating the teacher in
the uttcrance Of all difficult words,
and especially filling the lungs well at
every stop. London Larcet

A prohibitionist writing from Amt,
county to the Summit Sentinel, says
among other things that "Any govern
ment that tolerates such wastes Of money
for tobacco and whisky as ours, is a poor
government, and we Prohibitionists
intend by the help OF God, and by the
free use Of Winchester rifles il necessary.
to change, alter and amend it so as to
prevent it," II Winchester rifles had
not been used already in some parts Of
Mississippi, to enforce the diff'erential
doctrines, we should have believed his
whole article was gotten up by some
cred ticker" man, to show the extrava-
gance of prohibtionists. We are a pro-
hibitionist, but not Of the anti-tobacco,
Winchester rife sort. This is question
that appeals to our reason, and not
wholly to our sentiment. 1T is this
dangerous tendency that is now retard-
ing the progress of even local option.

Mr.. John Wilson came to Clark Co.,

and has been successfully engaged in
business. But his ways OF getting along
did not suit some people, and conse-
quently his stock was poisoned, his fruits
and vegetables destroyed, and recently
his stables and his fine cattle and horses
burnt. His neighbors met in an indig-
nation meeting, and passed resolutions.

The body OF Henry Taylor and his
wife, (colored), were found near Green
wood, floating in the Tallahatchie river.
Taylor was said to be good and indus
trious man, but he had difficulty with
q colored Free Mason, in which the dis
ciple of ancient rites got the worst OF it.
Both Taylor and his wife disappeared
for while, and nothing was known Of
them until the discovery OF their decom-
posed bodies were found in the river.
Suspicion rests upon the colored Free
Mason, as it is said, thatthey are solemn
" bound to resent all injuries received
by any one OF them-even to killing.

While the writing-room in her own

can sit in q room anywhere with a
talkativc lady, two or three chatting

only compose her most intense and
soul-stirring verse in the melee, but
keep in sympathy with the spirit Of

her, people stand first, things after

grandest poem fall in fragments about
her feet rather than wound the feel

which it must have cost a supreme eff
fort to turn aside. She neither wrig-
giles nor writhes, uplifts her eyes nor
drops her head. But for an unusual
light in the wine-colored eyes and a
slightly increasing color, one might
imagine her engaged in writing an Or
dinary letter to a friend.
The only gesture which can be said
to betoken a moving of the composing
waters is a dainty little thrust of the

Col. A. c.. Thompson.

Some of the friends Of Col. Thomp-
son have begun to agitate the ques-
tion Of his denomination for a third
term. Without saying anything dis
paraging to the candidacy of any 9TH
er Republican who may seek a NOM
ination, we wish to say that the peo-
pie of this District can do no better
than to send the Col. back, for third
term. The old prejudice against the
name Third Term" is unreasonable
in the extreme. No man claims the
right to third nomination, but in
case the people see fit to reward a
faithful service for two terms with a
third nomination, we fail to see the
improperly therein. Col. Thompson
is an active and influential member Of
the House, doing honor to the consti-
tuency that sent him there. Under
Democratic administration he has
necessarily been prevented from doing
as much for his District and it's peo-
Pile as he would have liked, and we are
not sure that it would not be a good
thing to send the Col. back for a term
under James G. Blaine or John Sher-
man as President. For it is pretty
we'll settled in the minds Of the Amer
lean people that Mr.. Cleveland will
retire at the close of his first term.
This District could not find a better
candidate, nor more earnest, active
Republican, than Col. A. c. Thomp-
son. His patriotism is attested by a
bullet wound through one of his
lungs. Such are the men the people
should delight to honor.

experimenting when your lungs are
in danger. Consumption always seems,

some cheap imitation of Dr. King S

the genuine. Because he can make
more profit he may tell you he has
something just as good, or just the
same. Don't be deceived, bnt insist

The death of Henry Ward Beecher,
yesterday morning, at his home in Brook
Ign, from apoplexy, removes one of the
most prominent public characters of this
age.
Mr.. Beecher was unquestionably in the
front rank of orators. His services in
the cause Of anti.slayery, and his efforts
for the Union at home and abroad during
the rebellion merit the gratitude Of his
countrymen. AS theologian he was
vascillating and uncertain. His theology
of one year was different from that of the
next, and the longer he lived the, more he
wandered from sound doctrine.
During the past fifteen years ho has
gradually been losing his hold on the pub
lie ear and the public esteem.
There have been few greater orators
but the world is full of men of better
Judgment and consistency of life.
